Schools will stick with quarantine procedures despite CDC change
Moorman Scott Roberson | Daily Journal
With less than two weeks to go before the end of the semester, Johnson County schools don’t plan to make any changes to quarantine requirements despite changes to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s guidance, but it may look different come January.
The CDC changed its quarantine recommendations earlier this month, which was reflected in a Dec. 3 news release from the Indiana State Department of Health. Updated recommendations say if an exposed person is asymptomatic, they can end quarantine after 10 days. An asymptomatic person can end quarantine after seven days if they are tested on day five, six or seven and get a negative result, as long as they don’t develop symptoms during that time, according to the news release.
